Overview

The Green Sabre is the turning point of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Cesar shows CJ a secret meeting under the freeway where Big Smoke and Ryder meet the Ballas and C.R.A.S.H., and Pulaski backs out the green Sabre used in the drive-by that killed CJ's mother. CJ races to warn Sweet, who has walked into a Ballas ambush, and holds off the attackers until the police arrive.

Cesar shows CJ the meeting that changes everything: Big Smoke, Ryder, the Ballas and C.R.A.S.H. together, and the green Sabre linked to Beverly Johnson's death. When CJ reaches Sweet, the ambush is already underway. After the fight, Sweet is arrested, and Tenpenny drives CJ out of Los Santos, ending the first chapter of the game.
